OIM 11g R2: Setting target attribute dependend on process type (create, update, disable)

Question

Hi,
I try to set an attribute ("Action") of users on a target system (Lotus Notes) dependend on the type of process that was carried out:
When the user is created in Lotus Notes by oim, "Action" should be set to the value "create".
When the user is updated in Lotus Notes by oim, "Action" should be set to the value "update".
When the user is disabled in Lotus Notes by oim, "Action" should be set to the value "disable".
What would be the easiest way to achieve that? And how exactly would I have to set that up? (I have tried reading the documentation on Adapter Tasks, however I wasn't able to get that to working...).
Thank you!
M

Hi J,
thanks for your reply. I had some troubles trying to follow your description, but this is what I did:
1) Create one field in your process form as "Action".
I used the pre-existing field "RoamSubdir"
2) Create a new Process Task in Lotus Notes Process Defn for "Action Updated" (You can use OOTB adapter for mapping purpose)
DesignConsole: Process Management > Process Definition > "Lotus User", Add: "RoamSubdir Updated"
3) Create a new Process Task Adapter which populates which takes input as input1 and return the input.
Development Tools: Adapter Factory > Adapter Name "RoamSubdirAction", Adapter Type: "Process Task" > Tab "Variable List", Add "Name: input1, Type: String, Mapped As: Resolve at runtime", Tab "Adapter Tasks" > Add "Logic Task", "Set Variable", Variable Name "Adapter return value", Operand Type "Variable", Operand Qualifier "input1"; Click "Build".
4) Create 3 Process Tasks in Lotus Notes Process Defn . One for each action. For example: Update Action As Enable, Update Action As Disable, Update Action As Create. In each process tasks, pass input as Enable,Disable and Create respectively.
Process Management > Process Definition > "Lotus User", Add: Task Name: "Update SubRoamdir As create", Tab "Integration", Add, "Adapter", adpROAMSUBDIRACTION. Edit "2|N|input1|input", Map To: Literal, String, create; Edit "1|N|AdapterReturnValue|ReturnVariable", Map To: Process Data, Qualifier: RoamSubdir
5) Map each tasks created at step 4 to success of Create User, Enable User, Disable user respectively.
Process Definition > Edit "Create User" > Task Dependency, Dependent Tasks,  Assign "Update RoamSubdir as create"
However, this does NOT work. When provisioning a new user on Lotus, looking into the resource history I can see that "Update RoamSubdir as create" is NEVER called.
Did I do something wrong?
Thanks for your help,
